"We propose to legislate for the farmer so that he can deal directly TPith the consumer ,and so that when the consumer pays for produce the money may go directly into the pock ets of the farmer, and by this means we will cope with the high cost of living as no other means can."Col. Roosevelt. The foregoing is a sentence from a speech which Col. Roosevelt iecently made in Oklahoma. He has made substantially the same statement in a score, or perhaps in, hundreds of speeches, so it cannot be regarded as a slip of the tongue, an accidental ab surdity. But that it is an absurdity who can deny? Why does not the farmer deal directly with the consumer now? Ts there any law preventing or prohibit ing it? Could any law be enacted that would compel it? Everybody knows that in a limited way the farmer does deal directly ^with. the consumer now. In the small towns farmers do sometimes drive from door to door selling their pro duce direct to the consumer. So there is no law against it. But everybody knows, also, thatj speaking broadly ,it is, and will al ways be, wholly impossible for thements. farmer to deal directly with the con sumer. How could a farmer with a hundred fat steers to sell, deal direct ly with the consumers of meat? How could a farmer with 10,000 bushels of wheat in his granaries deal directly with the people who eat bread? How could a great city like Chicago be fed Jf its people could deal only with the farmers who produce the food upon which they subsist? On the streets of New York the other day a woman orator declared that meat was high because the meat trust would not kill cattle enough, and 'If Roosevelt were president he would compel them to kill more cattle!" The whole country laughed at theSuperintendent ridiculous declaration, and said: "How like a woman." But the speech of'the'woman' was not one whit more absurd than this studied and repeated statement of the third term candidate himself that "we I promised by our would legislate so that the farmer can i friend, Judge P. ueal directly with the consumer." It is not only undesirable economically, but it is impossible^ physically, everybody knows it. And i lJki!$} Northern J'JtMdnnesota with her mines, her forests and fertile prairies, can surely boast of a diversity of in dustries. And now two Iowa gentle- men are planning to establish a musk rat farm. A whole section of swamp wanted for the farm and H. J. Max field, state commissioner of immigra tion, has been called on for informa tion as to a suitable location. Ventilate Your Bedroom A.s soon as the harvest is giving leisure to the men who have been working hard all summer, they should think about their wjnter sleeping quarters. According to the state An ti-tuberculosis society^ pauch of the consumption which attacks country residents is aided by poor ventilation in the bedroom. Every one needs plenty of fresh air when he sleeps, and with blankets on the bed, you will be warm enough if the windows are open, even in the coldest weath er. Storm windows should be put on' hinges so they can be opened during the night. Thousands of people all over the state are sleeping in the op en air all the time on sleeping porches. These are open on three sides, shut off from the house and have given renewed energy to every one who has used them. Fresh air will prevent as well as cure tubercu losis.. NORTH STAR COLLEGE NOTES The best-*year in the history of the school has been begun, and all the "Stars" are rejoicing. October the first which was enrollment day the teachers were kept busy meeting new students who came to have their year's work arranged. Splendid wokers have appeared for all depart- A picture of last year's graduating class has been handsomely framed and presented to the College. This will indeed be a pleasant remem brance of a group of earnest and able workers. A hearty thanks to the class. Edward Johnson, '10, was a caller /last week. The first class in Marshall county to graduate from the Teachers' Trani ing course as laid down by the Na tional Sunday School association was the one from the Presbyterian church of Warren. A large audience was present to listen to an interesting program. Prof. O. E. Abrabamson, of the Teacher Train ing work in Marshall county, was present and delivered the- medal. THE FULL DINNER PAIL This was the famous phrase that represented the spirit of the cam paigns of 1896 and 1900. It was derid ed as merely material and fleshly. At the same time every sensible worker in philanthropic societies and churches, knows that it is of no use trying to convert anyone until he is decently fed and clothed and warmed. Similarly in politics. The fundamen tal question, the one that take's prece dence of every other, is that of the full dinner pail. A party may pro pose all kinds of alluring reforms, and some of them may be good ideas. At the same time, if the party leaders lack a certain practical business or common sense, they may make mess of the business of the country that will leave no hope or energy left for the trying of experiments. When a workingman finds the notice "clos ed for lack of orders' 'posted up-on his workshop door, the only thing that comes into his mind is now he can open up that factory. In the four years from 1893 to 189? the traveler about the country was confronted everywhere by tbe gloomy sight of silent factories, no smoke coming out of the chimneys, no sign of human habitation except the watch man. What was the trouble? Simply that the Democratic party had got into power and was trying but a lot of the ories. Although stump orators are every where citing these four years as an example of Democratic methods, it has not been our fortune so far toHousehold hear any Democratic orator or news paper taking up this point and at tempting to refute it. The Democratic party* cannot es cape responsibility for the black peri od of depression that then existed. It .was a panic three or four times as lasting and crushnig as the financial difficulties that occurred in 1907. What reason has the Democratic party to show that it has changed its essential nature in 15 years?.
